please help! i got no response last time

Greetings
I would like to install a 6" lift kit to my Australian 82 F100 4x4. What is the best COMPLETE kit for this. I don't want to buy something cheap and find out later that i can't wheel align the thing properly or it wanders all over the road at speed. I do both a lot of highway miles and offroad driving. I want the right kit not just a cheapy for lokks. Also many years ago i used to see a lot of overdrive units, i think that they where made by eaton? I can't seem to find a source for these out here or anyone who knows anything about them. Any leads a phone number or supplier would be appreciated
Best Regards Paul

Here's a popular overdrive unit.

I won't comment on the lift, because I have never bought or want a lifted truck. Makes the bed very un-handy to use, but that's what I use my truck for.

Look into Skyjacker for the lift kit. They might be a little more expensive than the others...but they are #1 when it comes to quality and strength.

Others to look into are Fabtech, BDS, Superlift, Rancho, and Pro Comp
